FAQs
What type of accessories can I use with the Bosch PWS 18V-70?
You can use standard 115mm (4.5 inch) cutting discs, grinding discs, and wire brushes designed for angle grinders. Always ensure the accessory's RPM rating meets or exceeds the tool's speed and follow safety guidelines.
Is this angle grinder suitable for heavy-duty professional use?
The PWS 18V-70 is designed for small to medium DIY jobs. For continuous, heavy-duty professional applications, a more powerful corded or larger cordless model might be more appropriate.
How long does the battery typically last?

What is the warranty period for this tool?
